The type of the repellent 5 is appropriately determined according to the type of the harmful animal to be removed. For example, when a monkey is used as the target harmful animal, chili powder is preferably used. In the case of deer and wild boar, stimulant powder is preferred. The amount of the repellent 5 is determined to be an amount sufficient to drive off the target harmful animal, and is appropriately determined according to the type of the repellent 5.

  The repellent release machine 2 is preferably a cartridge type. That is, the repellent dispenser 2 is replaceable, can be removed from the receiver actuator 3 after use, and a new repellent dispenser 2 can be attached to the receiver actuator 3. As long as such an action is possible, there is no limit to the manner in which the repellent dispenser 2 is attached to and detached from the receiving actuator 3.

  The reception actuator 3 is a reception operation means, and is a device that receives the signal transmitted by the transmitter 4 and operates the repellent discharger 2 so that the repellent 5 is released. The pest control apparatus 1 has five receiving actuators 3, and each receiving actuator 3 is installed in the field 10 at an appropriate interval. Each receiver 3 is equipped with the repellent discharger 2 as described above.

  Each of the receiving actuators 3 is adjusted so as to receive a signal having a frequency corresponding to a channel of the transmitter 4. That is, when the transmitter 4 is set to a predetermined channel and a signal of a frequency corresponding to the channel is transmitted from the transmitter 4, the signal of the frequency among the five reception actuators 3 is received. Only the receiver 3 adjusted to receive the signal, and then actuate the repellent dispenser 2 attached to the receiver 3. In this way, only the specific receiver 3 among the five receivers 3 installed in the field 10 can be operated by the transmitter 4.

  A schematic front view of the receiving actuator 3 is shown in FIG. 4A. In FIG. 4A, 15 represents an exterior case, and 16 represents a display operation unit. The reception actuator 3 includes an exterior case 15, a reception operation unit 12, and a display operation unit 16.

  The exterior case 15 is a rectangular parallelepiped case that accommodates the main part of the reception operation unit 12 and is a member to which the repellent discharger 2 is attached. The display operation unit 16 is provided on the surface portion of the outer case 15 and has a function of performing an operation of turning on / off the power, displaying an operation state, and the like. The structure of the display operation unit 16 is not limited as long as the function required for the display operation unit 16 can be exhibited, and can be the same structure as a known display operation unit.

  The receiving operation unit 12 receives only a signal corresponding to a specific channel of the transmitter 4 that is transmitted by the transmitter 4, and based on this, sends an ignition current to the ignition agent 8 of the repellent discharger 2, It has the function of operating the repellent dispenser 2. Only the electric wire 11 and the antenna 14, which are part of the reception operation unit 12, are provided outside the outer case 15, and the other parts are accommodated in the outer case 15.

  The antenna 14 is a member that captures a signal transmitted from the transmitter 4. One end of the electric wire 11 reaches the igniting agent 8 of the repellent discharger 2 and is a member that transmits the ignition current to the igniting agent 8. The structure of the reception operation unit 12 is not limited as long as the function required by the reception operation unit 12 can be exhibited. For example, the structure of the reception operation unit 12 can be the same as the structure of a known reception operation unit.

  The receiving method of the receiving actuator 3 is not particularly limited as long as the function required by the receiving actuator 3 can be exhibited, and is the same as the receiving method of a known receiving actuator, for example, double super Heterodynes can be used. The transmitter 4 is a transmission means that transmits a repellent release signal that instructs the repellent release device 2 to release the repellent to the reception actuator 3.

  The pest control apparatus 1 has one transmitter 4. The transmitter 4 has 5 channels and can transmit radio waves having different frequencies according to the respective channels. Each channel corresponds to one of the five receiving actuators 3 on a one-to-one basis. That is, in the transmitter 1, when any channel is selected and a radio wave having a frequency corresponding to the channel is transmitted from the transmitter 1, only one receiving actuator 3 receives the radio wave, The repellent is released from the repellent discharger 2 attached to the receiver 3.

  A schematic front view of the transmitter 4 is shown in FIG. 4B. In FIG. 4B, 18 represents a display operation unit. The transmitter 4 includes an outer case 17, a transmitter (not shown), and a display operation unit 18.

  The exterior case 17 is a rectangular parallelepiped case that accommodates the transmitter. The display operation unit 18 is provided on the surface of the outer case 17 and is a part that performs power on / off operation, channel selection, display of a selected channel, radio wave transmission operation, and the like. The structure of the display operation unit 18 is not limited as long as the function required by the display operation unit 18 can be exhibited, and can be the same as the structure of the display operation unit in a known transmitter.

  The transmitter is housed in the outer case 17 and has a function of transmitting radio waves having a frequency corresponding to the channel selected by the display operation unit 18. The structure of the transmission unit is not limited as long as the function required by the transmission unit can be exhibited, and can be a structure similar to the structure of a known transmission unit.

  The size of the transmitter 4 is not limited as long as the above functions can be exhibited, but it is preferable that the size of the transmitter 4 is such that it can be placed on the palm and easily operated. The transmission method of the transmitter 4 is not particularly limited as long as the function required for the transmitter 4 can be exhibited, and is the same transmission method as that of a known transmitter, for example, a digital code transmission method. Can be adopted.

  The frequency of the radio wave transmitted by the transmitter 4 is not particularly limited as long as the function required for the transmitter 4 can be exhibited, and can be appropriately selected from a frequency range permitted for use by law.

  The distance that the transmitter 4 can transmit radio waves is not limited as long as the function required by the transmitter 4 can be exhibited, but the transmitter 4 can remotely operate the receiving actuator 3. It is preferable that the distance is as much as possible. If remote control is possible with respect to the receiving actuator 3, even if it is far away from the field 10, by operating the repellent release machine 2 and releasing the repellent, the pests can be driven away. Because. For example, the distance is preferably 200 m at the longest. Note that, under current laws and regulations, the transmitter 4 cannot use radio waves with a distance exceeding 200 m.

  Next, the operation of the pest control apparatus 1 of the present invention will be described. For convenience of explanation, in FIG. 1, five (i to ho) receiving actuators 3 are installed in the field 10, and channels 1 to 5 of the transmitter 4 are respectively connected to the receiving actuators 3 of i to ho. It shall correspond to.

  The user waits with the transmitter 4 at a place where the radio wave transmitted by the transmitter 4 can reach each of the receiving actuators 3 installed in the field 10. When a pest, such as a monkey, appears in the field 10, the user observes the movement of the monkey. For example, when the monkey approaches the receiving actuator 3 of A, the user selects channel 1 in the transmitter 4 by the display operation unit 18 of the transmitter 4, and then transmits a radio wave from the transmitter 4. Let

  Since only the receiving receiver 3 can receive the radio wave of the frequency transmitted from the channel 1, only the receiving actuator 3 receives the radio wave. The receiving actuator 3 that has received the radio wave causes an ignition current to flow through the electric wire 11 based on the radio wave. When the ignition current reaches the igniter 8 of the repellent discharger 2, the igniter 8 is ignited.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the explosive provided around the igniting agent 8 by the ignition of the igniting agent 8 inside the container portion 13 of the repellent discharger 2 attached to the receiving operation device 3. 7 burns and generates combustion gas. Due to the pressure of the combustion gas, the sliding plate 6 rapidly moves upward. When the sliding plate 6 moves, the repellent 5 on the sliding plate 6 also rapidly moves upward, and the repellent 5 is moved out of the container portion 13 through the discharge hole 9 provided in the upper peripheral wall of the container portion 13. It is released vigorously.

  The repellent 5 released in this manner, for example, chili powder, is bathed in a monkey that has been approaching the receiving actuator 3 of A. The monkey then evades the chili powder and escapes from the place. If the monkey escapes from the field 10, the pest control by the pest control device 1 is completed at that time, but if the monkey remains in another place in the field 10, Perform the operation.

  For example, when a monkey away from the vicinity of the receiver 3 of the mobile phone approaches the receiver 3 of the mobile phone 3 again, the user uses the display operation unit 18 of the transmitter 4 to set the channel 2 in the transmitter 4. Then, radio waves are transmitted from the transmitter 4. Since only the radio reception actuator 3 can receive the radio wave of the frequency transmitted by the channel 2, only the radio reception actuator 3 receives the radio wave.

  Thereafter, in the same manner as in the case of the receiving actuator 3 of the above-mentioned, as shown in FIG. 6, the repellent 5 is released from the repellent releasing machine 2 attached to the receiving actuator 3 of B and is exposed to monkeys. Then the monkey runs away from the place. Such an operation is repeated until the monkey escapes from the field 10. Thus, the pest control by the pest control apparatus 1 is completed. In FIG. 7, the flowchart of operation in the said pest control apparatus 1 is shown.

  In the pest control apparatus 1, by repeatedly performing such an operation on a pest, for example, a monkey, the monkey can learn to experience pain when in the field 10, and as a result, It can be expected that the monkey that has been the target of the operation of the pest control apparatus 1 once does not enter the field 10 again.

  The repellent 5 used in the pest control apparatus 1 is a drug that the target pest simply repels, and therefore does not affect the survival or health of the pest.

  In the pest control apparatus 1 of the present invention, the repellent discharger 2 can be operated by a radio signal, so that it can be operated from a place away from the field 10. Therefore, when using this pest control apparatus 1, it is not always necessary to monitor in the vicinity of the field 10, as long as the radio signal of the transmitter 4 can reach the receiving actuator 3. For example, while performing daily work at home or work place, when it is discovered from home or the like that a pest has invaded the field 10, the transmitter 4 is operated at home or the like to operate the repellent discharger 2 be able to.

  Moreover, in this pest control apparatus 1, since the transmitter 4 can be operated while observing the movement of the pest with the naked eye or binoculars, the most effective receiver 3 for the pest. Since the repellent discharger 2 can be operated at the most effective timing, the repellent 5 can be reliably acted on the pests.

  Furthermore, in this pest control apparatus 1, since only the specific repellent discharger 2 can be selectively operated by the transmitter 4, the repellent discharger 2 that is ineffective even if operated is operated. It is possible to prevent wasteful consumption of the repellent discharger 2 due to. That is, the pest control apparatus 1 can be used while at home or the like, and can surely remove the pest from the field 10.

  The repellent discharger 2 in the pest control apparatus 1 of the present invention is preferably a cartridge type. Since it becomes exchangeable by adopting the cartridge system, the used repellent discharger 2 is removed from the receiving actuator 3, and a new repellent discharger 2 is attached to the receiving actuator 3, whereby the pest control apparatus 1 Can be used repeatedly.

  Subsequently, a pest control apparatus 21 which is another example of the pest control apparatus of the present invention is shown in FIG. In FIG. 8, 25 represents a code, and 26 represents an operation box. The pest control device 21 includes a repellent discharger 2, a reception actuator 3, a transmitter 24, a cord 25, and an operation box 26. The pest control device 21 is the same as the pest control device 1 with respect to the repellent discharger and the receiving actuator.

  The operation box 26 is connected to the transmitter 24 by a code 25. The operation box 26 is a member that can operate the transmitter 24 via the cord 25. FIG. 4C shows a schematic front view of the operation box 26. The operation box 26 has an operation panel 27, and on the operation panel 27, power on / off operations for the transmitter 24, channel selection, selection channel display, radio wave transmission operation, and the like can be performed. That is, substantially all operations that can be performed on the transmitter 24 can be performed from the operation box 26.

  The code 25 is a code that connects the operation box 26 and the transmitter 24 and transmits an operation signal output from the operation box 26 to the transmitter 24. The length of the cord 25 is not limited as long as the function is exhibited, and can be appropriately determined according to the distance between the place where the operation box 26 is required to be operated and the transmitter 24.

  The transmitter 24 is mounted on a support column installed in a place where radio waves can reach each receiver 3 installed in the field 10. The transmitter 24 is the same as the transmitter 4 in the pest control apparatus 1 except that the cord 25 is connected and can be operated by the operation box 26. The transmitter 24 may be attached to an object other than the support as long as there is no problem in use, or may be installed directly on the ground.

  The action of the pest control apparatus 21 is that the user operates the operation box 26 in the pest control apparatus 1 instead of the user directly operating the transmitter 4 to transmit radio waves from the transmitter 4. The operation is the same as that described in the pest control apparatus 1 except that radio waves are transmitted from the transmitter 4.

  The frequency of the radio wave that can be transmitted by the transmitter 4 is restricted by legal regulations. For this reason, the reachable distance of the radio wave transmitted by the transmitter is also limited. For this reason, in the pest control apparatus 1, even if the transmitter 4 is operated in a place where the distance between the transmitter 4 and each receiving actuator 3 is larger than the reachable distance of the radio wave, The radio wave does not reach the receiving actuator 3, and the repellent discharger 2 does not operate. That is, the pest control apparatus 1 cannot be used in such a place far from the field 10.

  Therefore, if the user's normal place of residence, work place, or the like is located far away from the field 10 so that the radio waves do not reach each receiver 3, the pest control device is used at home. 1 cannot be used, and if this is used, the transmitter 4 must leave the home or the like and move to an area where the radio waves reach each receiver 3. For this reason, the operation of the repellent discharger 2 is delayed, and there is a risk that the field 10 will be damaged by the pests during that time.

  On the other hand, the pest control apparatus 21 has an operation box 26 connected to the transmitter 24 by a cord 25, and the transmitter 24 can be operated by the operation box 26. Therefore, the transmitter 24 emits. If the transmitter 24 is installed at a position where radio waves can reach each receiving actuator 3, even if there is a user in a place where the radio waves do not reach each receiving actuator 3, the user By operating the operation box 26, the repellent dispenser 2 can be operated.

  That is, even when the user's normal location, such as a home or work place, is located far away from the field 10 so that the radio waves do not reach the receiver 3, the length of the cord 25 is reduced. The pest control apparatus 21 can be used at home or the like by appropriately determining. Therefore, in the pest control apparatus 21, even in such a case, when the pest appears in the field 10, the repellent release machine 2 can be operated immediately. It can be effectively prevented from being devastated.

  The pest control device according to the present invention is not limited to the pest control device 1 and the pest control device 21, and various modes can be adopted. For example, the following changes or improvements can be added to the pest control device 1 and the pest control device 21 within a range in which the problems of the present invention can be solved.

  The repellent dispenser is not limited to the explosive combustion type as the repellent dispenser 2 and may be a device based on any principle as long as it has the function required for the repellent dispenser. For example, the repellent release machine may be a device that discharges a repellent using high-pressure gas, or a device that discharges a repellent by electrical and mechanical forces. However, among these, the explosive combustion type is particularly preferable in that the repellent discharger can be operated most quickly to release the repellent.

  Further, the structure of the explosive burning type repellent discharger is not limited to the structure of the repellent discharger 2 shown in FIG. 2, and the repellent may be released by the action of the receiving actuator. Other structures may be used if possible.
